Reduce Your Use of Paper Towels

I rarely buy paper towels and when I do, it cracks me up how quickly we go through them. When I use cloth it's like I don't notice how much I am wiping up spills and stuff. Reducing your use of paper towels is as easy as putting a cloth towel in your kitchen. Buy or make several; you can often find inexpensive kitchen towels at your local discount store. They will pay for themselves quickly as you will no longer spend money on paper towels. We rarely buy them; only for parties or having large groups of family over.

Then when you do buy paper towels, look for ones made from recycle paper, whitened without chlorine, & safe for use in septic systems.
